<p>So, being the stupid person I am,
Made a mistake in PEN on one part of the application (i added an extra number).
If i white-that out, will college admissions think i'm a sloppy person and look at my application disdainfully??</p>
<p>It's cuz my whole application's with the really nice application that the schools send, and i dont want to print one off online...</p>
<p>Unfortunately, white out will instantly get you rejected. This is because college admissions offices are overflowing with apps that are immaculate in their presentation; they've got their pick of clean applications, why would they pick yours?</p>
<p>........</p>
<p>hahahahaha</p>
<p>Are you serious.</p>
<p>no; did you take a high school class in sarcasm?</p>
<p>........ = universal sign of sarcasm</p>
<p>AHHH im a very gullible person,</p>
<p>and i REALLY don't want a single dash of white-out be the whole cause of a "bad application"</p>
<p>See the ongoing thread about "People really obsess, don't they?"</p>
<p>Don't worry -- believe it or not, colleges want humans and not Vulcans or androids incapable of mistakes.</p>
<p>I really doubt it would have that much of an effect.</p>
<p>& hahahaha to post #2. Classic.</p>
<p>okay okay. i'll take your guys' words for it.....</p>
<p><em>crosses fingers that the admins will accidentally miss the mistake</em></p>
<p>I mean if you are using a printable form, it doesn't hurt to reprint the forms. If you are using one of the apps that they sent you; just use white out, it won't be bad.</p>
<p>I can't believe I just made a post referring to people freaking out about white out on their application, and then I find one!</p>
<p>Don't freak out. Whoever tells you that you're going to get rejected because of WHITE OUT is being stupid (or being sarcastic). The whole idea of rejecting students based on their hand writing or white out is preposterous; your hand writing and etc does not tell the admissions people who you are. </p>
<p>And if they DO toss aside your application because of white out (which I doubt), then that is a college you wouldn't want to go to, anyway.</p>
<p>Haha, okay.</p>
<p>=]</p>
<p>There's a thread in the "High School Life" forum that kind of...mocks this thread.</p>
<p>Oh yeah, and they don't really care what you do, as long as they can read it and it's not so messy that they brood over its messiness while reading the next 10 apps.</p>
<p>WOW and i did it AGAIN on my other application.</p>
<p>Zomg!!!!111!!!!11!!</p>
<p>Yes. A little bit of white out will ruin your application. There goes your future, I'm afraid.</p>
<p>Give her a break guys, this application represents what she's done for 4+ years. It's understandable to want it to be perfect.</p>
<p>No, lmicheellee should just go to Mcdonalds to flip burgers. Such an egregious mistake can't be tolerated.</p>
